Near-relativistic swarm could image Proxima b at 20-meter resolution and scan for biosignatures, paper says - Phys.org
Laser sail propulsion is an idea that won’t go away. By aiming powerful Earth-based lasers at tiny spacecraft with light sails, tiny spacecraft can be accelerated to near-relativistic speeds without carrying fuel or an energy source, and without carrying any …
Laser-plasma accelerators can preserve polarization of Helium-3 ions - Phys.org
Particle accelerators such as those at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva are typically highly complex large-scale devices. In these ring-shaped facilities, which are often several kilometers in length, magnets and radio-frequency…

Geologists have discovered that the African continent will split apart sooner than we thought.
Evolution has reused the same genes for 120 million years, study shows - Phys.org
Scientists have shown that evolution has been using the same genetic “cheat sheet” for over 120 million years, suggesting that life on Earth may be more predictable than first imagined. The international team, led by scientists at the University of York and t…
Halley’s Comet Lights Up The Sky Again Through Eta Aquarid Meteor Shower Peak: Here's When to Watch - The Daily Galaxy
A surge of fast-moving meteors tied to Halley’s Comet will reach its peak in early May, offering one of the most dynamic skywatching events of the season.
A Well-Preserved 92-Foot Dinosaur Was Accidentally Found at a Construction Site in China - The Daily Galaxy
92 feet long, strange bones, and an impossible neck, this giant dinosaur is unlike anything we expected.
